1. Description

PATURA solar installations are designed for maintenance-free operation of the electric fence energiser from spring through to autumn. If the energiser is switched down to a lower power level, this maintenance-free operation can be continued throughout the winter.

The Safety Box XL can accommodate energisers with output energies of up to 15 J (P 6000), making it particularly suitable for long fences with heavy vegetation. With extra-large solar panels and a 200 Ah battery, maintenance-free operation from spring to autumn is possible.

Internal Dimensions: Width = 58 cm, Height = 56 cm, Depth = 30 cm

2. Technical Data Solar Panel

3. Application Information:

• Select a suitable place where the sunlight is as constant as possible.
• Orient the panel due south, at a 45° horizontal angle for year-round operation. Adjust the angle to be steeper in winter and flatter in summer.
• If there is insufficient sunlight, it may be necessary to recharge the battery and operate the energiser at a lower power level, especially in spring and autumn.
• Avoid shade on the solar panel, as it reduces power output significantly.
• The solar panel needs to be cleaned regularly.

Important: Please refer to the separately enclosed operating instructions for your specific energiser.
